They swim. They crawl. They bite. They gnaw.

This is a Sc-Fi Network presentation...one of the better ones. Very interesting story about a small fishing community hit by hard times. To boost the economy, human growth hormones are dumped in Cultus Lake causing a drastic change in the lake life. Mutante snakehead fish the size of alligators devour all that's in the lake and begins crawling on land to satisfy the thirst for human blood. Snakehead fish are serpent-headed and elongated in a torpedo shape. Some have been known to wiggle overland with extended fins and stay out of the water for up to three days.

Sheriff Patrick James(Bruce Boxleitner)and marine biologist Lori Dale(Carol Alt) team up to find a way to end the terror of the snakeheads. F/X are actually good and generates excitement. Rounding out the cast: Chelan Simmons, William B. Davis, Juliana Wimbles and Alistair Abell. Talk about the fish biting! This flick has about the same atmosphere as LAKE PLACID(1999).
